[00:00.000]Cape of Good Hope - The Tramps
[00:22.617]I'm going to the place
[00:24.537]Where the gods fight wars
[00:26.806]Where the angels sit in silence
[00:28.786]While the demons roar
[00:31.006]It will take me ten weeks down
[00:33.136]And ten weeks up
[00:35.116]And I'll shake the devils hand
[00:36.966]At the cape of good hope
[00:40.676]The captain was a hard man
[00:42.176]From the town of killy begs
[00:44.516]He had seen two wars
[00:45.606]And lived except for his right leg
[00:48.796]He was trusted and respected
[00:50.966]By all of us onboard
[00:52.936]And he sailed us along
[00:54.736]On the pride of donegal
[00:58.086]I'm drinking today
[01:00.176]'Cause I'm sailing out tomorrow
[01:02.766]Twenty weeks at sea
[01:04.116]Without a drop of irish porter
[01:06.835]I'm drinking today
[01:08.345]So give me bitter by the barrel
[01:11.155]Twenty weeks
[01:11.945]To cape of good hope and home
[01:18.454]The first port of the journey
[01:20.244]Was a dock in tangiers
[01:22.814]Then we went to senegal
[01:24.724]And things went wrong from there
[01:27.004]The best part of the crew laid sick
[01:29.304]Beneath the deck
[01:30.934]With yellow fever
[01:32.164]Scurvey and a touch of gonorrea
[01:36.403]The captain lost his marbles
[01:38.033]And he took the wrong turn
[01:40.412]However he did manage
[01:42.122]That I guess I'll never learn
[01:44.522]The after seven weeks at the open sea
[01:48.661]I saw the shore of trinidad reveal itself to me
[01:53.719]I'm drinking today
[01:55.809]'Cause I'm sailing out tomorrow
[01:58.409]Twenty weeks at sea
[01:59.849]Without a drop of irish porter
[02:02.518]I'm drinking today
[02:03.958]So give me bitter by the barrel
[02:06.777]Twenty weeks
[02:07.587]To cape of good hope and home
[02:32.042]Now I'll never have to see
[02:33.712]Where the gods fight wars
[02:36.221]The angels are singing
[02:38.051]And I'm standing in awe
[02:40.351]The pride of donegal well
[02:42.201]We burned her down
[02:44.471]And I'm never gonna leave my place
[02:47.291]In the sun
[02:49.581]I'm drinking today
[02:51.451]'Cause I'm sailing out tomorrow
[02:54.221]Twenty weeks at sea
[02:55.621]Without a drop of irish porter
[02:58.251]I'm drinking today
[02:59.761]So give me bitter by the barrel
[03:02.581]Twenty weeks
[03:03.381]To cape of good hope and home
[03:09.640]I'm drinking today
[03:11.510]'Cause I'm sailing out tomorrow
[03:14.320]Twenty weeks at sea
[03:15.770]Without a drop of irish porter
[03:18.310]I'm drinking today
[03:19.900]So give me bitter by the barrel
[03:22.630]Twenty weeks
[03:23.450]To cape of good hope and home
